What did the sale of the Lake Monsters mean for Vermont baseball? (Encore)

July in Vermont means hot dogs and peanuts and Cracker Jacks… and summer baseball. A few summers ago, reporter Liam Elder-Connors joined question-asker Emma Ramirez-Richer in the stands at Centennial Field to share some Dippin’ Dots, root for the Lake Monsters and chat with fans about Emma’s winning question. The team had just been sold the year before and Emma wanted to know: “What does the sale of the Vermont Lake Monsters mean for the team, and what does minor league baseball mean to Vermonters?”We’re revisiting that episode this baseball season. Find the web version of this episode here.This episode was reported by Liam Elder-Connors and produced by Angela Evancie.
